This one was made for one of our friend's birthday. Since he loves sports, his wife ordered us to make cupcakes of his most favorite sports: Baseball, Basketball, Football, and Soccer.
This was actually our first time working with frosting as the decorators. The only ball that I decided to use fondant was the soccer ball. I actually did try making them with frosting, but it ended up looking sloppy and unrealistic, so I used fondants in the end (after all, fondants are my best friend <3) And also, we used tootsie rolls for the footballs! :D
So I know I don't blog a lot, and I'm getting lazier by days... just because there are a lot of things I have to do other than blogging about my life. I realized that I probably won't be blogging much in the future anyway, so I've decided to make my blog specifically about my baking projects instead. At first, I decided to make a blog only because I had more free time and I wanted to try something new that I've never done before. Obviously, it won't work out very well now that I'm busier. And since I don't bake often, I probably won't be on here much anyways. I'll go back here every now and then, but I'll only be posting if there are new projects :)
Anyways, my manager ordered a cake for his wife's birthday. He told me
that his wife once told him to not get her flowers because they don't
last and usually die within a couple of days (I'm assuming she's not
much of a gardener haha) so I told him, why not make a bouquet of
flowers as her birthday cake instead?! The cake probably won't last long
either, just like the flowers, but hey.. at least this won't be
considered a "waste of money" since you can eat it! Haha, and this is
it...
I didn't want to use bright colors and decided to stick with the pink/ red theme. I thought it's a little to childish if it were to be purple, blue, red, yellow, etc. Surprisingly enough, this cake project didn't take up as much time as my other projects (which is a big YAY!)
